This is a question First World Problems

Onemunki says: We live in a world of genuine tragedy, starvation and terror. So, after hearing stories of cruise line passengers complaining at the air conditioning breaking down, what stories of sheer single-minded self-pity get your goat?

I don't see why creating a negative pressure smoking room where no staff are allowed is prohibited.
Well, I suppose some staff would have to be allowed in but they could wear paper clothes and respirators.
To me it's the fact that even solutions where only those who choose to smoke are exposed to it are banned which makes this an infringment of liberties. It means it is the action which is banned and not its consequences and, though I admit it's unlikely, it sets a precedent to ban anything anywhere "just because".

I'd like to see smoking banned in all public places tbh.

So you didn't read my post?
Or are you oposed to people being allowed to congregate and smoke, should they wish to, as long as it harms nobody else?
If it's the latter I'd prefer you didn't breath, therefore it ought to be law.

I read your post which contained your thoughts. I then posted my thoughts. I guess I should die for doing that. Carry on.

Indeed you should.
Scum who want to comtrol everyone else's lives are something the world is better off without.

Yeah, because not wanting to breathe your smoke is controlling your life. I like your alternative - you should control things yourself by weeding out people who want to control things and killing them. Well done. Carry on.

So you didn't read my original post then.
Fair enough, didn't think you did.
FYI I said public smoking ought to be allowed as long as nobody else had to breath it in.
In case you didn't realise it's possible to allow people to make their own choices without harming others.

"FYI I said public smoking ought to be allowed as long as nobody else had to breath it in."
You mean like smoking in public when you're the only one there kind of thing?

I explained what I meant.
There is a difference between smoking in any and all public spaces and having spaces specially created for smoking into which nobody need go unless they want to.
If the government weren't such cocks they could have easily, possibly using existing regulations, banned the former whilst still allowing the latter.
Either you're being willfully awkward or you're a complete moron.

Light another one mate. I can see how this all makes sense in your head.
(, Thu 8 Mar 2012, 18:56, closed)
I don't smoke.
Perhaps it would make sense to you if your IQ were out of double figues.

Yep, you've got me there. I'm clearly a moron. Well played. Totally exposed...

You're still a moron.
It's not the end of the world, but still a problem caused by idiots like you.

Oh god, I'd love to spend a few minutes inside your head. What a wonderful place it must be.

I proposed a solution to the problems of public smoking without banning it completely.
You seem to fail to understand that it is possible to have a public space in which smokers smoke with no harm to anyone else.

oh god, i give up

I told you you didn't read my post.

I hope i never have to read one of them ever again

Drink will be next.

A pressure altitude of about 50,000 feet should do the trick.
